Game Grandpa Finishes Resident Evil Requiem Without Guides
My Idol! 91-Year-Old Grandpa Finishes Resident Evil Requiem With Pure Skill and a Trusty Notebook
Yang Binglin, a 91-year-old Chinese streamer affectionately known online as “Game Grandpa,” is currently the talk of the town after successfully finishing Resident Evil Requiem entirely on his own. He achieved this feat through pure skill, completely avoiding online spoilers, how-to guides, or asking anyone for help.
During his Resident Evil Requiem streams, Game Grandpa showcased extraordinary gaming skills. He accurately shot down Lickers while playing as Leon S. Kennedy and smoothly executed stealth mechanics to sneak past enemies during Grace Ashcroft’s segments.
The Classic Notebook Strategy
What truly amazed the audience was not just his mechanical skill, but his highly unique and old-school approach to gaming. Instead of pulling up YouTube walkthroughs or looking up guides like most modern players, he opted for the most classic method possible: taking handwritten notes in his notebook.
He meticulously drew map layouts, listed essential in-game details, and jotted down puzzle solutions. He would carefully analyze his notes before jumping back into the game, relying solely on his own intellect and skill to progress. It is safe to say he got his absolute money and time’s worth out of the game!
Even though modern gaming offers countless ways to get unstuck, Game Grandpa prefers self-reliance. He views every gaming session as a puzzle-solving exercise that requires deep thought and genuine effort. Reflecting on his experience with the intense survival horror game, he shared a heartwarming sentiment:
“No matter how hard each stage is, as long as someone is by your side, you can get through it.” He also expressed his deep love for the streaming atmosphere, noting that having viewers to chat and share the experience with makes the journey infinitely better.
“Having people in the chat to talk to and play along with is much more fun than playing alone.”
A Guinness World Record Holder
Yang Binglin is no ordinary senior streamer. He previously secured a Guinness World Record as the world’s oldest male streamer at the age of 88. Before entering the gaming sphere, he had a distinguished career as a scientific researcher working in oil and gas drilling, retiring in 1996. Since then, he has played a massive variety of games, but the Resident Evil franchise holds a special place in his heart.
“As long as they keep making this game, I will keep playing. I’ve been through it for 30 years, waiting a few more years is fine.”
Game Grandpa’s story has become an absolute inspiration and a dream for many gamers worldwide, proving that no matter how old you get, as long as you still have passion, you can keep playing for a lifetime!
